Road Repair Project to Impact Traffic on Yakima Avenue

A road repair project will impact traffic on a section of Yakima Avenue for part of each day on Tuesday, November 13th and Wednesday, November 14th.

As a result of the project, traffic on the section of Yakima Avenue between North Front Street and 1st Street will be restricted to one lane in each direction on November 13th and November 14th from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm.

Drivers are reminded that the speed limit through all traffic-related work zones within the City of Yakima is 20 miles-per-hour.

During the project, traffic delays in the area are likely to occur.  Drivers should use alternate routes until the project is completed.

Access to homes and businesses in the project area will be maintained as best as possible.

As always, the schedule for this type of a project is subject to change daily dependent on weather, equipment failure, and emergencies.

For additional information about this project, contact Streets and Traffic Operations Manager Joe Rosenlund at 576-6430.
